Description
No. 2 Ballet Cardigan
Free your inner dancer with this wrap cardigan! With three-quarter sleeves, refined ribbing, and a tied waist, this charming cardi deserves to be shown off! Knit flat and seamed, this piece has a slight A-line shape thanks to the gauge difference between ribbing styles.

SEWING PATTERN NOTES
The dress pattern shown is McCall’s M7382 in View B with sleeve modifications. After the cardigan was completed, the sleeves were hemmed so that a bit of fabric would peek out underneath the cuffs.
This pattern is available as part of e-book Where Knitting Meets Sewing or as an individual pattern via Ravelry.
